# Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against

Date: 2025

## The fact

On 30 October 2025 the Italian Senate gave the fourth and final parliamentary reading to the constitutional bill separating judicial careers, 112 in favour, 59 against, 9 abstentions. The [Five Star Movement](/organizations/five-star-movement) voted against. [Giuseppe Conte](/people/giuseppe-conte), as M5S president, called the reform a design to clip the judiciary and take full powers.

## Context

He was opposition leader, not justice minister. Carlo Nordio is unresolved. [Meloni](/people/mig-giorgia-meloni) is live. Two-thirds was not reached, so a confirmatory referendum followed; that later vote is neighbouring.

30 October 2025 Senate fourth reading; Gazzetta the same day. Stored as one 30 October 2025 Fact. Keep Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against on 2025-10-30 separate from neighbouring 1 June 2018 oath, 4 October 2018 d.l. 113, 6 August 2021 M5S presidency, and 30 October 2025 Nordio fourth reading.

The M5S president who was president of the Council can swear a cabinet, co-propose a decree-law, and bind a parliamentary group. He does not sit as the Senate’s vote counter on 30 October 2025, as the Constitutional Court, or as Carlo Nordio. A 2018 gazette is not authorship of every later Superbonus coefficient. Sharing a 2018 cabinet with [Matteo Salvini](/people/matteo-salvini) is not a reason to drop 4 October 2018.

## Evidence and sources

Politico carries the official instrument or communique. la Repubblica records the same dated act independently.

## Significance

The path is the owned M5S-opposition driver: a completed opposition no on a constitutional judicial-career bill.

## What is established and what is not

Established: Senate 112–59–9 on 30 October 2025. M5S voted against. Conte publicly bound the no as party president.

Not established: A unique later referendum-turnout integer as size, or that he authored the Nordio bill.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, a later repeal, a court that vacated the instrument, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Sharing the no with PD and AVS is not a reason to drop 30 October 2025.. A later repeal, court stay, or successor order would be a different Fact with a different date. That pair identifies Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against, not a later speech about Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against.

Co-authors and later implementers named in Context remain on the file. Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against on 2025-10-30 is not a licence to treat every later Politico communique as this same act. If a later repeal, stay, or successor instrument exists, it needs its own date and its own row. This dossier refuses to average Senate fourth reading of Nordio justice reform 112–59–9; M5S under Conte votes against into a personality. The contribution described on this Person row is limited to He bound M5S as party president. Sharing the no with PD and AVS is not a reason to drop 30 October 2025. That limit is the alternative to treating office-holding as authorship of every later series.
